About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

My idea of concelebration
Here’s my idea of “concelebration”. The other kind should be safe, legal and rare.
A few London sights
I haven’t posted much in the line of photos from the London trip so far. Here are a few. From Brompton Oratory. Rabbit at Racine after Mass, where I meet a nice family I met with Fr. Trigilio in the … Read More
London Blognics: A) Monday 7pm Coal Hole and B) Friday… TBA.
UPDATE: The 6:30 Mass at Maiden Lane, for HM the Queen, is on, but I am not liturgically involved. Do take in the Mass and gain its benefits. I will head to the Coal Hole either way, aiming at about … Read More
Our personal convictions must translate into action in the public square.
London is decorated for the Queen’s 60th Jubilee. Apart from the decorations and public ceremonies, two things which will stand out from the observance of these 60 years. First, yesterday at the Brompton Oratory after the principle Mass, celebrated for … Read More
Underground and Overground
Today I visited the Churchill War Rooms (part of the Imperial War Museum). They were left nearly untouched after the war, which makes the trip much like a step back into time. Moving, to think of what was dealt with … Read More
